are the mcdonald's best buy bucks stackable? so far, i have $5 worth.... if i eat at mcdonald's once a week til black friday, i figure i could have around $50 in best buy bucks. sounds like a free $50 for eating at mcdonald's is too good to be true, but i think i have read somewhere last year, ppl were collecting best buy bcuks to buy stuff at best buy around BF time. i dunno if this was true or if i was day dreaming.





edit: wait... STACKABLE!!!!

(see rule #5, e, iii)

Nope - at least not up here with the $2 ones we've got in Canada. If you read the fine print, you can only use one at a time on a BB purchase.

Actually, that's better than this... a dollar off a burger is a large percentage off, while a dollar off of a game or whatever is a small percentage.

No, it was a dollar off a purchase at amazon.com. I think it might have has a $20 limit too...

Yes, they are stackable. And you can use them online or in-store. There are a couple restrictions (like you can only use $3 off a CD).

Limit of 40 promotional codes of any kind per online order. Limit of $3 in Best Buy Bucks? on any single CD or DVD. Limit 3 of any 1 CD, DVD or video game title per customer per day. Limit of $300 in Best Buy Bucks? redeemed per customer per day

This Limit of $3 dollars per CD/DVD seems to not work correctly, because I just purchased a movie online and used $9 best buy bucks and reduced the price to 5 bucks.

It's up to the Cashier to know the rules. Apparently that one didn't.
